fTHEY RETURNED TO THE CITY
YESTERDAY MORNING AFTER A
VERY INTERESTING STAY IN
. MOBILE.
The. party of Masons who left here
Monday In a special car for Mobile,
returried yesterday and announced a
most Interesting stay in that city. The
trip was to witness the Initiation by
the Shriners of a large class, about
half of whc-n were from this section.
Of the event the Mobil Register says:
Members pt Abba Temple, Ancient
Arabic Order, Nobles of the Mysti0
Shrine, rathered In Scottish Rite Tem
ple, on St. Francis street, last night
and listened to the prayers and pleads
ings and passed judgment upon the
petitions of forty-three unregenerate
eons of the desert, who .were 'carried
across the burning sands and finally
admitted among those of the true
faith. Following the long and tire
some journey, which began with many
at Fensacola and continued until 11
o'clock last night, the pilgrims were
refreshed by the annual traditional
' banquet, presided over by Potentate H.
,H. Wefel, Jr.
The Penaacola novitiates, accom
panied by Pensacola Shriners, arrived
in Mobile with visitors from sixteen
, other oasea on the Louisville and
Nashville southbound 4:12 train Wed
'Bead&y afternoon. The novitiates were
met at the depot by the members of
'Abba Temple. The visiting nobles
were taken In automobiles to Scottish
Bite Temple and the novitiates were
chained together, tied with ropes,
: guarded by nobles ' with cat o'nine
; tails and dragged behind the patrol
wagon to the temple of the Mystic
kShrlne.
. The patrol wagon led the procession
and the candidates were followed by
fourteen automobiles occupied by those
of the True Faith. Up Government
street to Royal, north on Royal to
Dauphin, and thence to Scottish Rite
Cathedral the victims were led to the
slaughter, followed by a crowd of
laughing, jibing boys, pointed at and
pitied by members of the weaker sex,
objects of ridicule, but with it all
bearing up under the ordeal proudly.
The novitiates lived up to the motto:
The test of a good Shriner is whether
he can si in a bushel basket of bum
ble b?s, eat an angleworm sandwich,
trim his toe nails with a meat ax, re
main suspended twenty feet in the air
hanging to an icicle with his teeth,
and still keep his temper."'
Upon reaching the cathedral the
Shriners convened in business session,
adjourning at o'clock into ceremonial
session, when the candidates were put
through the last stages of the "pil
grimages," which . lasted until 11
O'clock. .
Followed By Banquet.
At 11 o'clock Mobil Shriners and
Visiting members of the Mystio Shrine
and the new-wrought Nobles, sat
down to a bountiful spread and
drowned their sorrows In the bliss of
a menu, elegantly prepared and served.
The visitors left this morning on the
1:5 Louisville and Nashville train for
their respective homes.

DISPOSES OF
ES
LENGTHY 8ES8ION ' WAS HELD
LAST NIGHT AND CHARGES
AGAINST OFFICERS, SOME OF
WHICH HAVE BEEN PENDING
FOR ALMOST A YEAR, WERE
SETTLED.
At last night's session, which con
sumed two hours and a half, and
which Included the holding of an exec
utive session, the board of public safe
ty disposed of a number of cases
against members of the police and fire
departments. Some of these cases
have been dragging for almost a year.
As a result of the trials, several mem
bers were dismissed from the service
and a number more were suspended.
Trials in Fire Department.
The first ease called was that against
Dillon Touart, who was charged with
having failed to pay a debt, contracted
while In the employ of the depart
ment, but upon the statement of the
chief of the department that the de
fendant had made arrangements for
the settlement of the debt, the case
was dismissed and the chief instructed
to notify the party bringing the charge
against the fireman that, inasmuch as
the settlement had been arranged and
the matter taken out of the hands of
the board after charges had been in
stituted, the board would have nothing
further to do with the matter.
Win. Hunter was charged with fail
ing to report for duty after being off
on leave of absence, and further with
having failed to report after having
been ordered by his superior officer.
He pleaded guilty, but stated that he
was sick and did not intend to disobey
orders, and that he did not have any
way of informing the officer that he
was unable to report. He was sus
pended for five days.
George Jones was charged with re
fusing to pay a debt. He pleaded not
guilty and claimed that he was not in
the service at tha time that the debt
was contracted and that he had never
refused to pay the account. The
charge waa preferred by a motorman
in the employ of the electric company,
who testified that he had tried repeat
edly to get a settlement with Jones,
but that he was unable to do so and
that when he had told Jones he would
prefer charges that Jones had told him
to go ahead as he (Jones) knew how
to work the board of safety. Jones de
nied making such a statement and tes
tified that Dean had threatened to take
it out of his hide If he did not pay
him. Jones was notified that unless
he paid the amount on or before the
next pay day that charges would be
again preferred against him.
Win. Farine was charged with leav
ing without permission. He was not
present and it was stated that he had
been out of the city for about a month,
having left without notifying his su
perior officers and it was not known
where he went. He was dismissed
from the service.
Fireman Houlehand had been dis
missed by the chief of the department,
and the board ratified the action of
Chief Bicker In discharging him.
Trials in Police Department.

department were tried on the charge
